Blockchain can play a role in simplifying digital rights management. DRM as it is commonly known is complex as solutions here were not designed for today’s changing business models such as the downloading of music, streaming of content, and use of set top box for television says Anurag Vardhan Sinha, Senior Vice President and IndustryHeadAmericas – CommunicationsService Providers, and Media & Entertainment, Infosys. The consumption and management of content in the music, movies and publication industry is siloed. Blockchain can do away with the current problems with self-executing smart contracts and monetize assets quickly.
In telecom, blockchain can simplify the settlement of roaming fees, faster. Today this is being done by third parties and is expensive.
Software defined network is another areas where blockchain can play a role by delivering bandwidth on demand with greater flexibility. IoT service management is another area where blockchain has wide applicability. Billions of devices are going to be on the IoT network and blockchain can help manage these. Blockchain can also enhance security of IoT solutions - especially of those that do not have much intelligence.

Media (communication)

Media (the singular form of which is medium) is the collective communication outlets or tools that are used to store and deliver information or data. It is either associated with communication media, or the specialized communication businesses such as: print media and the press, photography, advertising, cinema, broadcasting (radio and television) and publishing.

Evolution

The word media is defined as "one of the means or channels of general communication, information, or entertainment in society, as newspapers, radio or television."

Communication

Communication (from Latincommūnicāre, meaning "to share") is the purposeful activity of information exchange between two or more participants in order to convey or receive the intended meanings through a shared system of signs and semiotic rules. The basic steps of communication are the forming of communicative intent, message composition, message encoding, transmission of signal, reception of signal, message decoding and finally interpretation of the message by the recipient.

Communication in general takes place inside and between three main subject categories: human beings, living organisms in general and communication-enabled devices (for example sensor networks and control systems). Communication in the category of living organisms (studied in the field of biosemiotics) usually occurs through visual, auditory, or biochemical means. Human communication is unique for its extensive use of language.

Nonverbal communication

Nonverbal communication describes the process of conveying meaning in the form of non-word messages. Examples of nonverbal communication include haptic communication, chronemic communication, gestures, body language, facial expression, eye contact, and how one dresses. Nonverbal communication also relates to intent of a message. Examples of intent are voluntary, intentional movements like shaking a hand or winking, as well as involuntary, such as sweating. Speech also contains nonverbal elements known as paralanguage, e.g. rhythm, intonation, tempo, and stress. There may even be a pheromone component. Research has shown that up to 55% of human communication may occur through non-verbal facial expressions, and a further 38% through paralanguage. It affects communication most at the subconscious level and establishes trust. Likewise, written texts include nonverbal elements such as handwriting style, spatial arrangement of words and the use of emoticons to convey emotion.

Its courses include undergraduate degrees in Journalism, Media Production, Photography, Advertising and Media and Communication, Culture and Media. It has masters level degrees in Applied Communication, Automotive Journalism, Film and Visual Cultures, Global Journalism, Global Media and Communications and Media and Cultural Analysis

Research, Impact and Recognition

The department has a long established research culture in the fields of Media and Communication contributing to debates at local, national and international level. In 2006 it launched a weekly industry talk series called the Coventry Conversations whose long list of speakers includes Jeremy Paxman, Murray Walker, Donal Macintyre, Jeff Jarvis, Paul Abbott, Jeremy Vine, Baroness Valerie Amos and many more.Jon Snow, of Channel 4 News, is a visiting professor in the department. The department also has talk series in Open Media and Photography

Crash Course

Plot

Crash Course centers on a group of high schoolers in a driver’s education class; many for the second or third time. The recently divorced teacher, super-passive Larry Pearl, is on thin ice with the football fanatic principal, Principal Paulson, who is being pressured by the district superintendent to raise driver’s education completion rates or lose his coveted football program. With this in mind, Principal Paulson and his assistant, with a secret desire for his job, Abner Frasier, hire an outside driver’s education instructor with a very tough reputation, Edna Savage, aka E.W. Savage, who quickly takes control of the class.

The plot focuses mostly on the students and their interactions with their teachers and each other. In the beginning, Rico is the loner with just a few friends, Chadley is the bookish nerd with few friends who longs to be cool and also longs to be a part of Vanessa’s life who is the young, friendly and attractive girl who had to fake her mother’s signature on her driver’s education permission slip. Kichi is the hip-hop Asian kid who often raps what he has to say and constantly flirts with Maria, the rich foreign girl who thinks that the right-of-way on the roadways always goes to (insert awesomely fake foreign Latino accent) “my father’s limo”. Finally you have stereotypical football meathead J.J., who needs to pass his English exam to keep his eligibility and constantly asks out and gets rejected by Alice, the tomboy whose father owns “Santini & Son” Concrete Company. Alice is portrayed as being the “son” her father wanted.
